It can take a bit to get used to if playing with a controller for sure, but anyone who played Thimbleweed Part in the past couple of years shouldn’t have any problems with it. Well, none of that has changed for Return to Monkey Island. Now for those not familiar this game plays just like all point and click adventure games, where you collect items, solve puzzles and often have to use items in weird placed to proceed. Having learned that his former (and still nemisis) LeChuck has a map to direct them directly to the secret, Guybrush decides he needs to stop them, however the heads of the new pirates refuse his plea for help, so he has no other choice but to infiltrate LeChuck’s crew to stop them once and for all. After some prompting from the boys Guybrush decides to tell them the tale of how he found the secret of Monkey Island. The plot picks up right where Monkey Island 2 left off with Guybrush’s son Boybrush is playing around with his friend at an amusement park, recreating his father’s legendary adventures. Thankfully Disney was willing to work with him to allow him to make the game his team wanted to make and have the creative freedom they desired. The game had been in development since 2020 even being worked on during COVID-19 remotely. Over the years he continued to work on gaming, until he finally had the opportunity to make the right connections with folks to get access back to the license and was able to work on Return to Monkey Island.Ī game that surprisingly was worked on in secret, he told no one outside of the people working on it that it even existed. Legendary point and click game creator Ron Gilbert (Maniac Mansion, Monkey Island, Thimbleweed Park) had always wanted to continue to work on the series he created however when Disney bought Lucas Arts he no longer had access to the IP.
Return to Monkey Island is the follow up to 1991’s Monkey Island 2, that’s right 31 years later we got the follow up to the cliffhanger ending of Monkey Island 2.įor those of us old enough to remember and appreciate it.
